HOT AIR COOKING
The circular element and fan come on. The heat is dispersed by forced convection
and the temperature can be regulated to between 50° and 225°C via the
thermostat knob. The oven does not require preheating.
Recommended for:
Food which has to be well-cooked outside and soft or rosy inside, for example
lasagne, lamb, roast beef, whole fish etc.
DEFROSTING FROZEN FOODS
Only the oven fan comes on. Use with the thermostat knob set to “●” - other positions
have no effect. The food is thawed by ventilation without heating.
Recommended for:
Quick thawing of frozen foods; one kg requires approximately 1 hour.
Thawing times vary according to the quantity and type of food to be thawed.
